What is it with Corsa Drivers? Since getting the scooby, the only people who have actually tried to race me are these guys.
I nearly got beat off the lights by a 1.2 the other day because I was p***ing myself laughing at the guy who thought he might actually win! Is this just a local thing or does this happen everywhere. Views, experiences?

Let 'em win- from a Karma point of view it has to be a good thing spreading that kind of joy. After all imagine the warm glow they will get from "beating" an Impreza.
The only ones I like to stick it to are drivers of fairly quick cars who think my crappy old wagon is a slug. They are usually wrong.

My missus thinks it's hilarious when people see her in her old MY96 wagon and think 'I'll give it a go'.....WRONG !
Apparently it's dead funny exiting a roundabout, and then looking behind a few seconds later and everyone else has disappeared
Shame I'M not allowed to drive like that when SHE'S in the car

Hey have an heart guys, not all us Corsa drivers are like that!!
I don't deliberately race anyone from the lights, tho I do like to accelerate to the most of my cars ability, no matter who is next to me.
I of corse know that the number of cars I can beat is pretty limited, but I do usually get off the lights quicker than most cars - mainly cos I'm the only one trying.
Never tried against a scoob - I'm far too busy looking at it admiringly and thinking "one day I will have one of those...."
